Eating Right During Pregancy

When I was pregnant, I was feeling a lot of mixed emotions. I was extremely happy with the thought of bringing a new life into this world, but also awfully worried for my baby’s health and safety while inside my tummy.

Since the very beginning of my pregnancy, my doctor strongly advised me to focus on proper nutrition and eat in moderation. I just could not eat whatever food I crave for, neither could I fill my belly with snacks high in sugar and sodium.

I made sure I consume a lot of fruits and veggies. Luckily, I learned that I could get a nutrition boost from potatoes, one of my favorite veggies! This was amazing because I love potatoes, which meant I could still enjoy eating them while I was pregnant.
